london in louis need to write people as well. in moscow to my disappointment people are going to restaurants where there's some kind of action. you know the place is visited by popular people and celebrities. it's all just about fashion. and i love tasty restaurants i love food and worked as a chef for a long time but i want people to praise the food not the people. how competitive do you think the london restaurant scene is and how successful do you hope to be here. recently i walked around chelsea district where i live at ten in the evening. but if that was what i wanted to see how few of the restaurants were on tuesday all the seven restaurants are visited. i could hardly find an empty seat but it must be above the scene time in moscow it's empty. tasty food is important for me. your clothes and i understand that both londoners and serious

school to restaurants for delicious food for your computer which is. the final question to all the restaurants and the russians here in london all foreigners all this is all part of your deal encreasing a big restaurants with a running one hundred twenty places in the asian one one hundred seventy in the italian one and another hundred in the bar so if you're one of his welcome but it will know from personal experience i'm sure everyone will love your restaurants here in london is the way to me. thank you. if you missed reading. skills in the language there's a bookshop in central london where thousands of publications can be found called the. kinds of books in the russian language including classics and contemporary writers from russian history. reading material such as love story paperbacks a range of d.v.d.'s of films and can be purchased at the shop you can come here

enjoy reading with a cup of tea and sweets but for those who live outside london. children's books are in big demand as there are many multilingual families where one parent speaks russian and they want their kids to be able to speak russian to the literature for children is very popular with our customers. capitals many young people from russia come here to study for a good experience. there are many russian students taking courses in fashion at london's famous st martins university but some choose the only way to get into the industry. came to the british capital as a journalist writing for top fashion magazines in the u.k. as well as working on articles. from russian vogue. she met another female. who decided to work on a label creating collections of clothes and accessories for self-made business

women alike. where. for example this jacket over a little. sick. the quality is. our next location is the beautiful russian orthodox cathedral in west london the parish is one of the oldest in western europe dating back to the end of the seventeenth century when peter the great visit to england in sixty ninety eight the church founded then was called the greek russian church it was attached to the russian embassy in november one thousand nine hundred seventy the first stone was laid for the foundation of the new russian cathedral here in harvard road she sick. person over knox church and

she's a quest london was built over ten years ago founded using private money it's an important place for many russians here in the capital not just as a place of worship but where ex-pats can meet others and be part of a close knit community. today the church has a sister a school but to talk religion the recent language and russian literature and singing on sundays and festivals the sisterhood and other person is prepare meals which allow russian ex-pats a get together beyond church services to meet guests of the parish. along. with them people go to church mostly on sundays so during the week there aren't many visitors here but on weekends the church is fully packed with around two hundred visitors. it's a landmark you can't miss in london as a place that brings the local russian community closer together a welcome addition to russian life in london.

when it would last five years and that's so the first stop has multiplied exactly because sergio was one of the great problems pollution and you can control is because across can see borders very well now i presume your car is very expensive no such reason of course because we are new in the market and we want customers to control us ok try for schools it's in the school and on the hand of trying to get. it so i would light and delicate a little taste of russia here in the purchase capital of course the oldest so you let us meet you thank you very much mr truss. so losing gradually as many cool it's commission shops in exhibitions to churches and b c m's and future architects design is you can even find bush and they streets

a look at the teams in this weekend's conference final. but first what a performance from. the twenty three seed beating last year's runner up justin and then the australian open and saying afterwards her plan to attack from the start paid off the stats were against the russian coming into the match having only beaten one in three times in their previous eighteen encounters but and then was carrying an elbow injury and that combined with his nets of his aggression gave the russian the first set six four. in the second went all the way to a tie break but it was business of who held her nerve she'll play francesca schiavone in the last sixteen and was delighted with the performance. i could go so many ways that i don't know i just i don't even know who was who do you have i will do the remember how i just had to fight the every point and i was trying to go for shots you know not to wait for mistakes even she did

mistakes. i remember who asked for me so i had to go and i thought i missed but. it was pretty happy with so many of that and also as venus williams she had to retire in her matches andrea petkovic after straining to try again after just seven points. elsewhere victoria as it is through the next play. this is not meant to see a video of a russian i was beaten by and to see service go over but fourteen see the ratio rap of a defeated human each to do cause good is actually rather hard to come from a set down her latest match will make a sharp. tough match her nose put in a situation being down for a set in mass and. did have those really tough games where i had to pull it out and find a way to win moving now my opponent was playing really well in those moments and today was

a little bit same going up and down and i was just unable to convert the break. but overall the most important thing is a far really wanting and i found a way to play better and the top seed caroline wozniacki is also three with the minimum of first the dame too good for dominique. a straight sets victory six four six three was the ski is still after her first grand slam title but is yet to drop a set championship. i played a very good match now how did i get there events since i last saw her in sydney last week you know was there me some ass or another she was through on fire. you know i have to be through to the next round i don't know who i'm playing so maybe you can ask you that afterwards. but i'm really looking forward to sarah for three hours the second time in a row. and also smiling is the men's defending champion roger federer he marched

into the fourth round with a one sided victory over release a federal closing out the first set six three and then surviving a break of saving the second before wrapping up a straight sets win in just an hour and forty five minutes of fourth round meeting with tommy robredo. and the third season about i only had to play one set in the third round to advance the former as he was leading back to the sixty with his to be in davis cup team might be to stomach muscles right. over to the kontinental hockey league now even god have taken the number one spot from the head to head meeting out of the house cramming a fourth time when i would the defending champs that makes top score up. with the wind three minutes into the extra session that sell about you live and i within a point of that was that off the scoring to announce that goal was in the final period to be spotted three one among the other results from your screen door to

well we'll start with winter sports because the twenty eleven winter university ad is taking place next weekend to russia has a history of performing well at the student games in the sports minister vitaly mood co says they are a test for the national team's prospects at the sochi olympics in two thousand and fourteen. it is pretty minimal of these but we have plenty of young promising talent on this team many of them have already made the youth national teams and of course performing well of the university eight could serve as a jumpstart for the development of their careers and some of them will be part of the two thousand and fourteen olympic team. but one out of five go through a list or japan defeat cattle or three to become the first team through to the semifinals of the asian cup. only twice getting just twelve minutes.

to. be allies. able to level the game off an hour. however. a man. you sheedy was sent off for a foul on the host scored results in free kick but. scoring his second to make it. well taken go and have a chance of a trick in the dying seconds but as you see collided with the keeper fulfill my sister and i were for the winner to hand man three to the semifinals. also three for the last four years pakistan who beat jordan at sea world scoring twice and on saturday astride a player x. and iran play south korea near the quarter final. there are some big games the english premier league this saturday to look forward to our latest months united hosting rivals man city are only second in the table on goal difference they are

away at aston villa place arsenal host wigan and spurs are away newcastle could go with the wind. meanwhile over in the states it's american football that is taking center stage with just four teams left fighting to reach the super bowl and few people expected to see the new york jets among them they face the pittsburgh steelers at heinz field in the a.f.c. title game on sunday before the playoffs started it was hard to imagine the jets would go anywhere beyond the wild card right. but rex ryan's team came up with two huge upsets first beating peyton manning and his colts in indianapolis and then taking care of the top seeded teams new england patriots in foxborough so for the second straight year the teams is a step away from that. first up by another big win against the statements we've had success on the road to playoff games we had a victory in the regular season against pittsburgh now that doesn't mean anything

but i say does mean it does mean stuff and i mean obviously they want to know when we're wanting and when we're fortunate to get the victory. but there's going to be you know it's going to be a slugfest there's no question about it and but we're confident team and on the other side of the bracket it's another defensive showdown and also one of the oldest rivalries in the n.f.l. with the chicago bears hosting the green bay packers for the n.f.c. championship the bears have had an easy path safe up beating the seattle seahawks who weren't supposed to be in the division was in the first place while the packers made their wife in a wildcard round taking down the eagles and top seed falcons along the way. as a respectable really really going to feel they have a number of guys who played in the league for a long time i think you can you know twenty four years guys i do not respect what they've done their careers but you know it's about going to rule this week so there's not going to be a whole lot of friendship at the top of the game it will be interesting that is the

sport whether it's next.

for the full stop.
